Be a Poll Worker

The Sarasota County Supervisor of
Elections employs more than 1500 workers at the polls on election day. Each polling
place has an election team, which includes a clerk, assistant clerk, a deputy, and
several inspectors.

To be a poll worker one must:

1) be a resident
of Sarasota County2) be a registered voter (or be at least 16 years of age and pre-registered to vote)3) read and write English

Poll workers must attend training
prior to each election and are paid $150 to $250, depending on the position assigned,
for training and working at the polls.

If you’d like to serve your community
and get more involved in the electoral process, please attend a poll worker orientation.
